    Summary

    Ilya is cold, ruthless criminal who rules the Ottawa's underworld ever since he moved there. Life of luxury and respect from others is all he is used to. Shane Hollander, however, is not, and when Shane catches Ilya's attention, Ilya's calculated obsession begins, drawing Shane into the world of danger, power, and psychological tension that he can't escape.

    "There are only two ways out of this. With me. Or in a body bag. Your choice."

    Summary

    It starts, as many things do, slowly. He quietly stops seeing Galina. He lies about taking his medication. The medication hasn’t been helping anyway. Then it’s Shane noticing he isn’t doing well, and begging Ilya to talk to him. There is nothing to say.

     

    Objectively, everything is fine. His life is amazing. He’s married to the love of his life, they play for the same hockey team, they don’t have to hide their love anymore. They have a dog and a place that is home. He has a family with Shane and his parents. He has friends with the centaurs and Svetlana. On paper, his life is amazing.

     

    The thought definitively doesn’t help the guilt he feels when he holds the handful of painkillers.

    Or: Ilya commits suicide. But when he dies, he finds himself as a ghost and is forced to watch Shane grapple with his death.

    Summary

    “You scream in your sleep.”

    “That was one night.”

    “It was three.”

    “You’re counting?”

    “Yes. Because I’m awake for all of them.”

    “I don’t want you to see me like this.”

    “I see you.”

    “It’s just a plate.”

    “I can’t—”

    “Can’t what?”

    “I didn’t stop it.”

    “I was fourteen.”

    Or, Shane starts having episodes—flashbacks he doesn’t fully remember—that bleed into sleep, into games, into the space between him and Ilya. He loses time. He loses weight. He loses control of the carefully engineered life he built to feel safe. Ilya isn’t the only one confused—because Shane won’t let himself remember. And when the ice finally cracks, it’s not just their marriage on the line.

    Summary

    The door next to him flung open and two long, muscular legs strode out into the night. Shane stared at the boots that were pointed away from him before they slowly turned around. The door clicked closed and the boots walked around to Shane’s other side and he heard the soft oomph of their owner sitting down beside him. Shane closed his eyes, suddenly too aware of his wet cheeks, but doing so only made the world tilt dangerously, so he opened them again and focused on a spot on the ground in front of his feet. He heard the telltale sound of a lighter clicking and the deep inhale from the man next to him. He smelled the familiar scent of tobacco, that he really did hate, but in this moment he loved it because of who it represented. He found himself inhaling just as deeply, sinking into the familiar aroma that was gently laced with pine and vanilla.

    “You smoke now, Hollander? Craving it?” said Rozanov, taking another hit.

     

    Or: Shane is mad at Ilya for his lack of communication when they run into each other at a club. Angst and feelings ensue.

    Summary

    A look at the year that Ilya still played for Boston, except they explicitly state their dom/sub relationship, and explore that dynamic (and kink) together.

    ————

    When they first started, it was by accident. Ilya followed Shane’s lead; he read his body and responded with his own. Shane liked to be on his knees for Ilya, and Ilya liked to keep him there.

    The first time it went wrong. Shane thought it was his fault. It wasn’t.
